PART 2
Usage Instructions
1. GENERAL PROVISIONS
Application of impulse currents on reflex zones and points for prophylaxis, treatment and
functional recovery is an independent method of treatment and can be applied both as a
complex treatment and as a mono therapy.
Numerous examinations show that the therapeutic action of the dynamic
electroneurostimulation (DENS) is based on multilevel reflex and neurochemical reactions
triggering a cascade of regulatory and adaptive mechanisms of the body. It results in
elimination of pain syndromes, improvement of blood circulation, anti- inflammatory
actions, activation of biologically active substances and metabolic processes in tissues,
normalization of the muscle and vascular tones. Dynamic electroneurostimulation promotes
improvement of general condition, better mood and capacity for work.

150
2. INDICATIONS AND CONTRAINDICATIONS FOR USE
The device DiaDENS-PCM can be applied to patients of any age from newborns to people
advanced age.
Indications:
— acute and chronic pain syndromes;
— traumas;
— respiratory diseases, diseases of the digestive device, diseases of ENT, blood circulation
system, musculoskeletal system, nervous system, endocrine and urogenital systems,
eyes, skin;
— rehabilitation after diseases, surgical operations and traumas;
— increasing body adaptive capacities under impact of negative pathogens factors,
intensive physical and mental work, physical and mental overexertion, syndrome of
chronic fatigue, difficulties with waking up in the morning and sleepiness during day-
time, disorders of falling asleep in the evening and insomnia, increased petulance, under
depressive states, sexual dysfunction, as well as for prophylaxis of colds. 151
Contraindications:
Absolute:
— individual intolerance to the electric current;
— implanted cardiostimulator;
Relative*:
— epileptic seizures;
— neoplasms of any etiology and localization (in the terminal stage of an oncological
process, electrostimulation may be carried out as palliative method (supportive therapy),
including rapid relief of the pain syndrome, after consultation with a doctor);
— acute febrility of unclear etiology;
— vein thrombosis;
— condition of acute psychical excitement, alcoholic or drug intoxication.
Attention! Do not apply the device in the zone of direct heart projection at the front!
152 In these cases it is recommended to use the electrostimulator only after consulting your attending doctor.
3. CONDITIONS FOR TREATMENT
You do not need any special conditions for treatment with DENS. Treatment procedures can
be carried out both individually and with help of an operator who will carry out treatment
on those zones and points, which you cannot reach yourself.
Electrotherapy is taken in a comfortable sitting or lying position. After the treatment
procedure the patient should relax for 10-15 minutes.
The present manual describes treatment plans with most some widespread disease states.
More detailed information about DENS opportunities is provided in the Manual on Dynamic
Electroneurostimulation supplied with the devices DiaDENS-T and DiaDENS-DT*.
Attention! Treat the device electrodes with a standard disinfection means (such
as 3% solution of hydrogen peroxide) after each procedure. The electrodes of the
device should be kept dry.

edition of V.V. Chernyshev. – Ekaterinburg, 2005. 153
4. INTENSITY (POWER) OF ELECTROSTIMULATION
The level of electrostimulation with impulse current is determined individually based on
subjective sensations of the patient. Intensity of electrostimulation is conditionally divided
into three levels.
The first minimal level - the patient does not have any subjective sensations or has subtle
vibrations in area of impact under electrodes. This level is used when treatment shall not be
intensive – for children up to 7 years old and patients with diseases of cardiovascular system
(hypertension, hypotension, a syndrome of vegetative-vascular dystonia). For patients who
are experiencing frequent headaches, dizziness treatment should also be carried out with
minimal power.
Second comfortable level — patient feels light pricking, vibration or light burning without
pain. It is used under treatment of weak pain and aches of medium intensity. This is the most
frequently used power level.
154
The third maximal level – the patient feels expressed painful pricking or burning. Such
intensity can be accompanied by involuntary contraction of muscles close to electrodes. It is
used under expressed pain syndrome.
Under switching on level of power is equal to zero. To increase power you should press
and hold button . Meanwhile, the power will be increased subsequently - from 0 to 99
conditional units.
To decrease power you should press and hold button . Meanwhile, the power will be
decreased subsequently.
Attention! Power of electrostimulation can be increased or reduced during the
treatment course depending on the extent of the patient’s sensitivity and as the pain
syndrome reduces.
Attention! Control of power level is executed subjectively considering sensations of
patient. You shall not exceed pain threshold.
155
Attention! For patients with hypertension, hypotension, a syndrome of vegetative-
vascular dystonia as well as patients who have frequent headaches, dizziness,
treatment should be carried out with minimal power level.

156
5. Modalities
Dynamic electroneurostimulation with DiaDENS-PCM device is applied using three methods:
stabile, labile and labile-stabile.
Stable method of application (fixed electrodes) is used for treating small zones and on places
with mutated skin (rash, abscesses, burns, postoperative and post burn scars, edemas, large
birthmarks and so on).
With labile method of application the built-in electrodes are moved smoothly within
the application zone without taking them off the skin at 0,5-2-3 cm/sec. Movements are
rectilinear, spiral, circular and other depending on the size and shape of the zone treated
and on uninjured skin.
Labile-stabile method is a combination of both variants of treatment when electrodes are
moved on skin with fixation on some places (e.g. on the zone of maximal painfulness).
157
Average duration of one treatment procedure:
— for children of the first year of life — 5-10 minutes;
— for children of 1-3 years — 10-15 minutes;
— for children of 3-5 years — 15-20 minutes;
— for children of 5-12 years — 20-25 minutes;
— for children of more than 12 years and adults — up to 40 minutes.
It is recommended to treat no more than three zones in one treatment procedure.

158
6. TREATMENT WITH THE DEVICE
Exposure in modes «Express» and «Therapy» is applied under localized pain syndromes,
functional disorders, for emergency aid. The duration of the procedure in the therapy mode
in the zone of direct projection of pain and functional disorder is defined by the following
reactions of the patient:
— the complaint is fully removed;
— the patient feel considerable improvement of the state of health;
— the patient has fallen asleep.
Power level of treatment in the THERAPY mode: from minimal to maximal. Methods of
treatment of a skin zone: stabile, labile, labile-stabile.

MENU → Treatment → MED
The MED* mode (PROPHYLAXIS) is applied in cases of expected intensive physical and
mental work, physical and mental overexertion, syndrome of chronic fatigue, difficulties
with waking up in the morning and sleepiness during the day-time, inability to concentrate
one’s attention, for prophylaxis of colds during epidemics. It is applied once during the
treatment procedure. It is recommended to apply as course treatment: 8-12 procedures.
Fix electrodes of the device to the zone he-gu. Set power
of treatment. Level of power to be applied is minimal or
comfortable.

168 MED — minimum effective dose.


Attention! Control of power level is executed subjectively considering sensations
of patient under contact of electrodes with skin surface. You shall not exceed pain
threshold.
Under detection of contact of electrodes of the device with skin surface countdown of
period of minimum effective dose of device’ impact will start.
Under switching on of the device power value is equal to zero. To increase power you should
press and hold button . Meanwhile, the power will be increased subsequently - from 0 to
99 conditional units.
To decrease power you should press and hold button . Meanwhile, the power will be
decreased subsequently.
Attention! During the device operation in «MED» mode electrodes on the patient’s
skin should be set in the «stabile» position, i.e. they should not move.
169
After the end of the program, sound signal will be generated. In average, program works
6-7 minutes.

6.4. Mode «Screening »


«SCREENING» mode allows: to select most optimal zones for impact to enhance system
effect of DENS, to determine latent trigger zones (hidden problem zones) by estimation of
the skin electrical resistance increase to nearby areas of the chosen zone.
MENU → Treatment → «Screening»
Put the electrodes of the device to the chosen skin zone. Frequency (10 Hz) and power of
impact are automatically set by the device.
Attention! During the device operation in «Screening» mode electrodes on the
patient’s skin should be set in the «stabile» position, i.e. they should not move during
operation in mode «Screening».
170
When the device detects the contact between the electrodes and skin surface indication of
period of time will appear – 5 seconds during which skin electrical resistance is determined,
after the impulse is sent by the device. After 5 seconds interval the device will emit short
sound signal and the display will show the measurement result as a ΔLT index (in range from
0 to 100 units), e.g., ΔLT = 8.
Write down the readings. Set the device to the next zone.
The latent trigger zones are those zones where ΔLT values significantly differ – upwards or
downwards. For example, under test of nearby areas you get following ΔLT results (in units):
6, 5, 8, 20, 4, 7. In this case the zone with the index ΔLT = 20 is considered to be latent trigger
one.
Detected trigger zones should be additionally treated in «THERAPY» mode for 1-5 minute at
60 or 77 Hz frequency. Go to menu:
MENU → Treatment → «Therapy» → 60 Hz
171
or
MENU → Treatment → «Therapy» → 77 Hz
Put the electrodes of the device on the trigger zone and apply treatment.
